Just a shout out to Jen and Nick of the Abu Dhabi Sup Club (
www.abudhabisup.com). If you are ever in Abu Dhabi and are looking for a paddle, they are very welcoming and hospitable. A bit surreal paddling around in front of a 7 star hotel! They have a festival on the 21 March if anyone is in the area. Also check out their charitable activities at
